Chapter 492: Chapter 234: ’Jin’an is tough, what about Yinruo?’_2
Lu Jin’an felt a sense of relief from the depths of his eyes and heart; it wasn’t too long.
If you add the time spent traveling here, it’s been just under three days...
Three days should be enough to turn back time.
After all, if he couldn’t overcome this time, it would be pointless.
"What?" Xiao Yinruo glanced at him, "Do you think you can reverse time with the little time rules you understand? You’re miles away from Wanyu!"
"Even if we take a step back and suppose you could do it, the laws here are chaotic. Do you think your cultivation level can make it?"
The laws are chaotic?
Lu Jin’an couldn’t tell, but since Aunt Ruo said so, it must be true.
This could be troublesome indeed.
After all, casting a spell in chaotic laws is different from doing so in stable ones.
With numerous thoughts darting through his mind, Lu Jin’an looked at her innocently: "I didn’t think of that method, I..."
"Then tell me, how far can your life go in this kind of place?" Xiao Yinruo asked indifferently, "If you can’t make any sense, watch how I deal with you!"
Lu Jin’an was about to speak when Xiao Yinruo had already turned around and was raising her hand to strike him.
Lu Jin’an’s expression changed slightly, and he instinctively took two steps back: "Wait, wait..."
"If you don’t want to pass out, come with me. What kind of trump card do you think a kid like you has against Divine Concealment? You still want to fool me?" Xiao Yinruo said expressionlessly, "Put away your little thoughts of sacrificing yourself."
"But I don’t want anything to happen to you..." Lu Jin’an didn’t finish his sentence as he changed his tone, "No, don’t slap again."
"Still not talking?"
"I won’t say anymore."
Xiao Yinruo’s hand, which had stopped in mid-air, still fell on his face, but this time it wasn’t a slap: "Your ideas are entirely impractical."
"Your ideas are impractical." Lu Jin’an retorted, "You just want to get me out of Buddha Burial Valley, but once out, who can I deal with between Bao Yue Buddha and Bao Huo Buddha?"
Xiao Yinruo said blandly, "I hadn’t thought about it; the danger of that mountain is entirely in your imagination."
"Fine, I’ll listen to you."
Lu Jin’an didn’t continue to argue. Xiao Yinruo removed her hand from his face, then held his hand as spiritual power threads wrapped around his wrist: "Don’t think about any crooked ideas on the way."
With that, she swiftly pulled Lu Jin’an and headed down the mountain.
The Forget Love Dao Domain shimmered softly amidst the eerie forest. Lu Jin’an didn’t feel much pressure, but only after Xiao Yinruo explained did he realize the gravity here was immense. Flying directly would consume even more spiritual power.
Lu Jin’an observed his surroundings. The valley, ravaged and desolate, bore ancient traces everywhere.
In addition to that, broken weapons, shattered kasayas, and scattered bones intensified the place’s eerie atmosphere.
Lu Jin’an swept his gaze over and, apart from weathered bones, there were bodies that hadn’t yet decayed; they should be the corpses of monks from the Buddhist Sect.
Crack.
Lu Jin’an stepped on it, and the bones shattered, prompting him to ask softly, "Do you know of this place?"
"I don’t." Since entering the gorge, Xiao Yinruo’s expression had been solemn: "Maybe it’s the remains of monks who failed to transcend the Five Desires and Six Dusts and then went mad."
Lu Jin’an didn’t speak, just released his domain to feel the surrounding grim silence: "Aunt Ruo, the time here... seems different from outside, faster than outside."
The time flow is different; indeed, the laws here are chaotic.
Lu Jin’an sighed inwardly; reversing time may not be useful here.
"Hmm." Xiao Yinruo nodded gently: "It’s approximately a five-to-one time flow, occasionally four-to-one, unstable."
Her expression relaxed slightly for a moment, and she praised, "You could sense it, very good."
Xiao Yinruo thought she should lighten the mood, to ease this kid’s unease.
She smiled faintly, "If Wanyu were here just now, she’d slap you even harder."
"If Master were here, I probably wouldn’t have said those demoralizing words."
Xiao Yinruo raised an eyebrow, "Even though what you said is true, right now I really want to slap you again."
"Would you get addicted to slapping?"
"What if I do?" Xiao Yinruo snorted lightly: "If you anger your aunt here, it won’t just be a slap next time."
Lu Jin’an felt Xiao Yinruo’s delicate palm: "My Master has never slapped me... You’re the second one."
"Who was the first?"
"My sister." Lu Jin’an said, "But even my sister didn’t hit as hard as you just did."
"You’ve upset me."
"You’ve cultivated the Forget Love Path for so many years, yet you still get easily angered?" Lu Jin’an teased purposely.
Xiao Yinruo was silent for a moment, then said, "You’re not the first time I’ve gotten angry with you."
"Really?" Lu Jin’an was slightly surprised, "When else?"
"When Nanzhi returned to Qingmiao Palace from Nanzhuo Domain." Xiao Yinruo gave him a sideways glance: "Yuan Yin was taken by you, her heart too, all without even knowing your name, yet she always spoke up for you... Back then, I really wanted to break your legs."
Lu Jin’an coughed lightly, understanding Xiao Yinruo’s feelings.
After all, after laboriously raising a cabbage, and having it nibbled away in just one outing, what parent wouldn’t be angry?
Especially when this cabbage doesn’t even know the ’pig’s’ real name.
"To be honest." Xiao Yinruo gave a light laugh: "At that time, I considered going to Nanzhuo Domain myself, to deal with it directly if Nanzhi was deceived."
"Correction, Nanzhi wouldn’t be deceived; on the contrary, I was the one tricked by her." Lu Jin’an glanced at Xiao Yinruo’s side profile: "When I was training, she suggested marriage the first time she met me.
